Learn how to successfully transplant okra seedlings into your garden with this easy-to-follow guide! 🌿 Whether you’re a beginner gardener or an experienced grower, this video shows you the best practices for moving your okra plants from seed trays to the garden for healthy, productive growth.
✅ When to Transplant: Transplant when seedlings are 4–6 inches tall and outdoor temperatures are consistently above 65°F.
✅ Hardening Off: Gradually expose seedlings to outdoor conditions over 5–7 days to reduce transplant shock.
✅ Soil Prep & Spacing: Choose a sunny spot with well-draining, fertile soil. Space plants 12–18 inches apart to ensure proper air circulation.
✅ Planting Technique: Gently remove seedlings, keeping the root ball intact. Plant at the same depth as in the seed tray. Water well after transplanting to help roots establish.
✅ Post-Transplant Care: Keep soil moist, mulch around plants to retain moisture and suppress weeds, and watch for pests like aphids or flea beetles.
